On The Essence Of Chasidus - Part 18
"Renewal"
(Recorded at the Intown Jewish Academy on September 18, 2016)
There is a most magnificent Kabbalistic teaching: that the universe exists for but a moment at a time. All of reality ceases to exist in this instant -- only to be re-enlivened once more.
The mystical underpinnings of this axiom are breathtaking. But its ramifications are even more astounding. What happened yesterday, what happened even a moment ago, no longer exists. This moment is a brand new reality that has just been created.
Kabbalists call this phenomenon "Constant Creation." We might call it "Renewal." No matter what you call it, it means that you and I are inhabiting a new world right now. And the past has no power to hold us back.
We explore this powerful teaching in this session of Kabbalah & Coffee. |
